KISS's Paul Stanley says band can survive without him and Gene

posted by rakshasa

Kiss is one of the most populaire bands in the world, and is also one of the most recognizable brands. This has been accomplished largely due to the marketing genius of bassist/vocalist Gene Simmons, though fellow vocalist/guitarist Paul Stanley deserves credit too. In fact, it could be a dit that Kiss is Gene and Paul, as the remaining two original members, guitarist Ace Frehley and le batteur, batteur Peter Criss, haven’t played with the band in over ten years. Those roles are now filled par Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer, respectively. But could Kiss live on without Gene and Paul?

Five Vital Business Lessons From Kiss

posted by rockstarbrands

There is a cool CNN special coming up on October 23 all about the Kiss brand. The video promo follows this post. If toi are a Kiss fan you’ll definitely want to watch, but I think as a fan of the music-to-marketing analogy toi will find it very intriguing.

KISS arrived on the scene in the mid 1970s and immediately put the fear of God into parents, teachers, and religious leaders. Kiss wasn’t just a rock band, they were a fire-breathing, devil-worshipping, rock ‘n’ roll circus. An entire generation fell in l’amour with the band and enlisted in the Kiss Army, their parents helpless to stop...

posted by RumorFix

It looks like Gene Simmons is finally ready to settle down after asking girlfriend of 28 years Shannon Tweed to marry him.

Simmons, 61, made the proposal in front of cameras on the season finale of Gene Simmons: Family Jewels.

“I come with so much baggage, but you’re the only friend I’ve got, ” Simmons told Tweed. “You’re the only one I’ve ever loved … I used to watch films where they say, ‘I can’t live without you,’ but for me it’s true.”

A rep for the rocker confirmed to RumorFix that Gene and Shannon really are engaged. We never thought we’d see the day!

my first concert tour

I've been a Kiss fan my entire life no thanks to having three sisters 8, 10, & 13 years older then me who all listened to the band daily. The one thing I've learned is that they are something worth listening to & the best band to see live in concert. I'm gonna tell toi my many years of seeing the hottest band in the world in concert.

Revenge in 1992 was my first concert I went to. I was in the 8th grade the concert was around Christmas so tickets were super cheap only $25 each. So I went with my big Sister Tammy who is my Kiss concert buddy now and forever. The concert was so amazing...
